Spirit Orbs
Tortuga
The first Spirit Orb found was Tortuga, "space and time seemed to warp around it..." according to ElBroce's field report from that historic incursion.
The red and gold tones are just one indication of the high energy readings emanating from it, but in fact this Orb ended up debugging and optimizing Enigmart's Metaverse UX code, making it 5x times faster.
Our systems Security team is still investigating how all protocols could be overridden by just being in close proximity to Tortuga.
Elefante
The pulsing glow could be seen several meters away from the entrance to the chamber where Medusa lies. Kevin was assigned to this section of the cave system because, though mostly unexplored, it seemed to be a fairly easy area to navigate from preliminary scans. A recent flu had the less than ideal consequence of doing this mission while medicated.
After just a few minutes of starting the procedure Kevin started feeling much better, according to the recorded conversation and the comments section of the technical report. A number of medical exams were performed post mission because of all these circumstances and to the surprise of the medical staff, no viral charge was found present in the lab results.
We still don't have enough data to draft a convincing theory but more exams are on the way.
Rana
The Spirit Orbs' intricate characteristics are only matched by the still mostly unexplored and unmapped system of dungeon like caverns where they're being discovered.
Taking this into consideration, EnigmArt has outsourced some of it's exploration activities to SC Incorporated(SCI).
Rana is the first Orb brought to light by SCI. It was found at the end of a very narrow corridor with walls that appeared to be laced with some type of energy veins, but with a moist look and feel to them.
This frog orb would change it's properties every time they tried to scan, measure, or record it in any way. Apparently not even the image we have right now reflects how it looks in person.
Medusa
The pulsing glow could be seen several meters away from the entrance to the chamber where Medusa lies. Kevin was assigned to this section of the cave system because, though mostly unexplored, it seemed to be a fairly easy area to navigate from preliminary scans. A recent flu had the less than ideal consequence of doing this mission while medicated.

Iguana
Last week, the main expedition started following a trail where humidity and temperature readings began registering consistently higher values. They finally reached it's end but the only thing was that it wasn't exactly an 'end'. On the contrary, it was more of an area acting as a fork linking this trail to another two.
Right there in the middle of this area the spirit Orb Iguana seemed to be carefully placed over a pedestal resembling a cut tree stump. It's pattern consisted mostly of different tones of green, with some accents of red and blue. EnigmArt considers this Orb to be one of the most visually astonishing pieces found so far.
PS: Recycling and regeneration attributes have been identified. This time, batteries and capacitors seem to be fully recharged plus there's a complete lack of component degradation when around Iguana.
Coral
The sixth orb brings with it light wave lengths closer to the violet-ultraviolet ranges. Also, upon closer look, Coral is composed of and behaves as an interconnected system of cooperating units.
This colony of really small orbs has shown the capability to react and adapt to external changes including those not happening in their own immediate proximity but in fact affecting other spirit orbs.
The specifics of the local and remote networking attributes found in Coral, evident in our observations, show a very promising research path for communications and resilience advancements.
Raya
The decision was made to follow on one of Iguana's forking paths. It was a steep descent right from the start which ended up reaching a sprawling area with a moderately sized water body, more like a lake than a river. It's composed of salt water and there are some indications that it might be part of a larger underground system.
SCI was tasked with this mission because of their expertise at working in difficult environments. Two researchers submerged, going deep into the dark waters while picking stronger readings at a depth of about 100 meters until they finally found Raya and it's 5 manifestations, seemingly swimming around an unknown crystal behaving as an energy source in the middle of a crater.
A second and third incursion are already planned to map out the underwater system and place sensors to collect data over a long period to try and understand the workings of this new energy source.
Colibri
The final unexplored fork required climbing equipment as it went upwards and became increasingly difficult to traverse as you advanced. "Temperature and atmospheric pressure steadily lowered as we advanced..." Nate, the team leader, wrote in the field report.
After a couple of hours, the team arrived at what seemed to be a small valley but were astonished by the fact that the moment they set foot inside it the extreme cold they felt at the end of the cavernous climb was gone and now replaced by a warm environment. This warmth went beyond just temperature, there was also an emotional component in it they couldn't quite describe.
Right there in the center of the valley lied Colibri, the final Spirit Orb. Around it, all sorts of flowers and vegetation grew. Colorful flowers, lush green pasture, never before seen fruit trees... wild vegetation of all sorts, some apparently endemic and never found or catalogued anywhere else.
EnigmArt seeks to develop new terraforming related technologies derived from Colibri's effect on its immediate surroundings.

The Discovery
Enigmart specializes in opening, maintaining, and traversing portals to the Cardano Metaverse in search of guidance, wisdom, and sometimes solutions to issues in the physical world. A few months ago, an astonishing discovery was made by our top field agent and time proven adventurer ElBroce. Inside what could best be described as a "cave" he found a round shaped object with truly unique patterns. Enigmart's advanced AI analyzed it and concluded that this "Spirit Orb", as we call them now, was a digital representation of a turtle(Tortuga).
Not much is known about the origins of these "Orbs" but one thing is certain, everything inside the Metaverse seems to be affected when in close proximity. Affected can mean faster, more efficient or with enhanced security for example; but sometimes they will disrupt, compromise, and otherwise negatively affect other processes in order to accomplish their goals or answer the questions presented by those interacting directly with them.
More research is needed and is being done about these Blockchain artifacts but extreme caution is being taken for not everyone seems to be apt to appropriately interact with them.
Since Tortuga, a Orbs have been discovered with similar, though not identical behavior. What we are presenting here is just an overview of the "Spirit Orbs" found so far.
